A box with three compartments, for betel-nut, buyo-leaf, and calcined shell, cast in brass or bell-metal from a wax mould. This type has rectangular surfaces, and is to be distinguished from the kapulan, a type marked by its circular, or elliptical, or polygonal top and base.
Eagerly the Malaki set out on his journey, with his kabir on his back, and his betel-nut and buyo-leaf in the kabir. He had not travelled far, before he came to a steep ascent of rock-terraces, the Terraces of the Wind, that had eight million steps.
The monkeys ran up, chattering, and tried to snatch the betel-nuts; but the Tortoise held them back, saying, "Wait a minute! By and by I will give you some." Then the monkeys sat around, waiting, while the Tortoise prepared the betel-nut. He cut the nuts and the pungaman into many small pieces, and the buyo-leaf too, and gave them to the monkeys and the other animals.
